No Cabinet shake ups because of leadership contest - Makhura
23 July 2018
Newly elected ANC Gauteng chairperson David Makhura says he will not use his role in both the political party and government to get rid of people who had different leadership preferences.
“There shall be no MEC who is changed because they have a different view from me,” said Makhura without mentioning any names.
Intense lobbying took place throughout the ANC Gauteng’s 13 th elective conference over the weekend in Irene, Pretoria.
The province’s top 5 also included Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi as deputy chair, Jacob Khawe as secretary, Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko as Khawe’s deputy and former Johannesburg mayor Parks Tau was elected as treasurer.
